JASRA projects can be classified into three categories
depending on their stage of development.
1. Companies
with sales and commercial products

2. Companies
with no sales but developing new products

3. Start
up projects 
All JASRA projects involve new science or technology and
almost always involve strong patent protection of the
intellectual property.
Typically, although not always, a JASRA venture starts out
as a project and develops into a limited liability or
registered company.
